My mama

by ogbuagu   Jun 18, 2007


The cock crows at the break of dawn

the boy clings nearer to her.

her eyes open with her mind

her heart with her responsibilities

her gender defines her love.

i cling unto my mama cos she is my spine

the ship that would carry me halfway in this dark world

like your ancestors before you yearn to love

oh my first love be blessed in 20 folds

a picture can never do what mama can do 4 me
